The latest revision in the list is the one that is currently pending. Note that you may have to click the button to see Minor Revisions in the list.
The one that is currently published will be the latest revision that says "Publically available" in the same revision list

I did click on the Minor Revision, but still don't see the "currently pending (or the one waiting for approval in the queue)" in the list. Maybe because of my reputation level limit to that view. Maybe it just only me

As I said - the currently pending one will be the latest revision, although what I failed to mention was that that revision will only show when you view revisions on the Pending article. However, if you go to view the original article you will be informed that there is a new version pending and given a link to go view it.

You can see currently pending because you're a protector.

Thank you very much for this Feedback. I will try to check it next time I read a publication which Needs to be re-approved.
Thanks, Bruno
[Edit]
Sorry again me. Ok there are two text boxes for the authors. But where I can found the Message(s) in the article?

Have a look at this: How to solve error MSB4025[^]
It looks like a spammer tried to post an "answer" to an old question and it was rejected.
Unfortunately, that rejection seems to have updated the original question and since it had no solutions, it came to the top of the unanswered list - and I posted an answer. Which is wrong, because it looks like rep point farming 
Rejecting spam shouldn't count as an update to the original: the chances are nobody has looked at the question since 2011 except to find somewhere "quiet" to post his links. Should it?

Sorry Griff - this reply is just to bring my thoughts from those other posts into this arena.
We were discussing that when a solution is deleted it will throw the original post back to the top of the "Active Questions" list. Now we're noticing that if a post already has answers then this is not necessarily a Good Thing, but if that deletion leaves the post without any solutions it would be a Good Thing.
We also know that it's handy to spot spammers and site-drivers if the question comes back to top when a new solution is added.
So here is my twopennorth for when the post should be brought back to top - none of which may be sensible or achievable ( )
- Solution posted awaiting moderation - original post should remain unaffected
- Solution deleted, other solutions exist - original post should remain unaffected
- Solution deleted, no other solutions - original post back to top of Active queue
- Original post edited - post back to top of Active queue (regardless of anything else)
- Solution added - back to top to catch spammers, have solution reviewed etc.
- Solution edited ... hmm. Gut feel says leave post unaffected but we've witnessed innocuous solutions turned into spam by subsequent editing ... so back to top
- Solution accepted - original post should remain unaffected.
An alternative might be some sort of warning pop-up along the lines of "Do you realise this post is xxx months old and already has an accepted answer"
I'm also getting a feeling of deja vu - I'm sure this has been discussed in detail before but I can't find the original thread.

I'd say it works ok as it is, with the exception of moderated items resetting the update and bringing questions back to the top: if a moderated item is never publicly posted did it ever happen?

Not at all. If there is an unanswered question or if you can provide a better answer who cares how old it is? Not me, although I might be the only one.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Hopefully nobody; which is unfortunately not the common "Usus" here

I'm not getting notified when my articles get new comments. How do I fix that? Thanks

This happens when there are no replies, yet, to the thread.
"View the reply to this message" also appears when there are no replies.
imho, if there are no replies, I'd like to see #1, not #2, and I think the "View the reply to this message" link should either be hidden, or appear grayed-out.
thanks, Bill

Not sure what you mean by #1 and #2.

I think he means the "thread length" counts on the front page. Certainly seems to be max(real_count, 2)

Hi, Chris,
Right now, viewing 'Insider News' in 'Thread View:' all posts by Kent show the number #2 at the far right of the thread title, and the content of the post has an active link 'View the reply to this message' ...
Like this one: [^]
... but there are no replies to such posts.
This results in my clicking the ''View the reply' link ... I'm crazy enough to often read the replies ... and finding nothing there.
Unfortunately, finding nothing there this way does not improve me in the way finding nothing there while meditating does 
If the intent of the number at the far right of the thread is to, usefully, indicate the number of responses, then I suggest there's a problem. And, having an active link that effectively does nothing is not optimal.
cheers, Bill

Should be good now. Found a logic error that spanned two stored procedures, two edit pages, the Spam Filter and a background process.
Took 3 hours to find and three lines changed to fix.

There was a time where preview worked very well... something about before one year.
At the Moment, preview does not work nice, neither in Q/A nor for Messages.
If you are lucky it Shows the preview until you hit first time <enter>.
This for Chrome, IE.
